Coney Island doyenne Dianne Carlin — aka Lola Staar — welcomed hundreds to the celeb-studded March 22 opening of her Dreamland roller rink on the Boardwalk. Marisa Tomei, Ashanti, and Gotham Girls Roller Derby, rolled out for the party.

“I used to roller skate around my parents’ basement when I was 7 years old,” Carlin said.
